Laudamus te

We might be getting a little ahead of ourselves in the Advent cycle—the Glorias and Hosannas should rightly be closer to Christmas itself, but I came across this video, "Gloria", from a performance by choirs of Luther College, and it spoke to me.

I know nothing about Luther College, except that it’s in Iowa and Lutheran. (I appear to have been hitting the Lutherans rather hard this year, but—dagnabit, they own a good part of the Christmas music market share.) I also do not know who this Randol Bass is, but he writes a good Gloria.

Crank up the volume.
